Description
Castle Rock has become a busy tourist destination of late, after the instalment of a 'skywalk'. Unfortunately this new atrocity has rendered some of the good climbing once found here unclimbable. These routes include Mike Law's three star classic Vous (22). Furthermore, all of the belay bolts on top of the climbs have been removed. Now one has to use care and build anchors connected to the skywalk.
The climbing here is fantastic. It is steep and hard. Usually the climbs are technical, although there are a couple of off-width nightmares to be had. Care should be had when relying on some of the older carrots.
Access issues inherited from Porongurups
This is a national park and therefore a fee is expected to be paid depending on where you park. This is sign posted upon entry and is monitored by the ranger.
Approach
20-30 min
It is a 2.5km walk (uphill) to the crag.
